Ep. 8 - Trusting our Intuition w/ Canna Nurse Megan Mbengue, RN

Meet the founder of Trusted Canna Nurse, Megan Mbengue, RN.<br/><br/>When Megan’s hospice patients started asking about medicinal cannabis, she realized there are very few medical professionals who know much about cannabis and how it works in the body, much less how to navigate a dispensary and all of the hundreds of products out there. She saw a need for someone with a nursing background to help people, especially elderly, see the benefits of cannabis and incorporate it into their care. Megan most recently worked as a home hospice case manager in Claremont, CA, where she helped many use cannabis with great results in managing their symptoms.<br/>Prior to hospice, Megan was a labor & delivery travel nurse in Southern California, working at various hospitals in the area. Before moving to SoCal, she worked at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, where she started her nursing career in both Labor and Delivery and Oncology. Megan received her BSN from Arizona State University in 2012 and is nationally certified in Oncology, Labor & Delivery, and Hospice & Palliative Care.<br/>Megan has done various programs, conferences, and webinars on medical cannabis and is currently working towards her Masters in Medical Cannabis. Megan is excellent at using her diverse nursing background to connect with patients on a personal level and uses her expertise to bring them the best possible care. She is great at breaking down complex concepts into easy to understand bits of information for patients, families, and health care workers.Sponsored by Cannabis Spa Association
